nuance', Commander-in-chief of the Imperial squadron, who left Napoli at the end of last month, was every hour expected at Smyrna. Before he left Tino, on the 23d July, he intimated to the primates of the island, that he should make them answerable for all acts of violence and spoliation, hitherto so frequently practised on the persons or property of the Catholics settled there, and that on his return to those seas, he should require ample satisfaction for every excess of this kind. VIENNA, SEPT. 14 .—Metalliques, 91 ; Bank Shares, 1064 2-5. SEP•r. 15 .—Metalliques, ; Bank Shares, 1345. A Bremen Paper of the 23d inst. contains the fol lowing account of the sudden depression of the Funds at Vienna, said to be in consequence of unfavourable reports of the conferences at Akermann VIENNA, SEPT. 15.—The Bank Shares, which sud denly fell on the 10th from 1074 to 1068, and which fall was ascribed to reports proceeding from an unknown source, that the conferences at Akerm ann did not promise a favourable result, are to-day at 1044.—The Metalliques, which on the 10th are 91i, were to-day 89g. Bombay Papers to the 18th June have been received; they contain the ratified treaty with the Burmese. It differs little from the outlines which we have laid before the public. The articles Ist, 2d, and 3d, state, there is to be perpetual friendship between the two countries. The King of Ava renounces Assam, and its dependencies, with the contiguous states ; Cacher and Jyntua. Munnipore is to be governed by GLOOMBER, as Rajah, provided he re turns. The British Government is to retain Arracan, with its four divisions. The fourth, fifth and sixth arti cles, relate to the cession of the provinces of Yeh, Tavoy, Mergui, and Tennasarian, with their dependencies. The King of Ave agrees to pay one crore of rupees, and no person to be m o l es t e d f or any par t h e may h ave ta k en in the war. Seventh, eighth, and ninth articles, accredited Ministers to be received at the seat of Government of each party, and regulate the money due from the King of Ave, to private individuals, and the duties to be levied on English shipping, in the Burmese territory. Tenth and Eleventh Articles.—The King of Siam to be included in the Treaty, and all prisoners on each side to be given up. CALCUTTA, MAY M.—The Enterprise, steam-vessel, returned from Rangoon on Monday last, having left that place on the 14th. Every thing continued quiet, and there was every reason to expect that the second instal ment would be punctually discharged. The body guard was embarked on board several transports, which were to sail on the 16th. The circumstance of chief interest, which had occurred was the foundation of a new town by the Commissioner, named Amherst Town. Martaban being ceded to the Burmese by the provision of the treaty, which relinquishes the territory on the right bank of the San-luoen, it became expedient to possess a station on the left bank of that river for the convenience of trade. An eligible spot for this purpose has been selected on a penin ' sula, near the mouth of the Martaban river, formed between another river (Halyer) and the sea, and terminating in Cape Hyai-Hami, we have been favoured with a letter, communicating full and interesting details of the proceed ings on this occasion, which we shall publish in our next. tly the letter of the 12th, we learn, that, a cantonment had been constructed for a regiment of Native Infantry. That the harbour, which is a very excellent on 3, had been buoyed, and that of 431 lots, into which the town was divided, 280 had been taken by respectable settlers, chiefly Chinese; a new tribe of Peguins were preparing to move th►ther, so that notwithstanding the unfavourable season tit the first, the settlements would be first occupied on the settin g in of the rains, groat expectatio n was entertained that it would be speedily populous. OFFICIAL POLITICAL DEPARTMENT. APRIL 1 I.—Hie Majesty's ship Alligator having arrived with Lieut.-Colonel Tidy, bearing despatches from Major- General Sir Archibald Campbell, and the Commissioners in Ave and Pegu, the following is the general information : " FORT WILLI Abl. " Sir—The late defeats sustained by the Burmese 'Army, and which led to its almost total dispersion, together with the vicinity of the British force to the capital of Ave, has had the effect (I trust sufficiently) to humble that haughty and arrogant Court to a submission, which will, no doubt, be made for a length of time subservient to its policy, so aa not:again wantonly to disturb the peace of the British Government in India. I have, therefore, only to say that I shall at once return, with the force under my command, to Rangoon, there to await the further commands of Go. verninent.

Camp, Xsndaboo, Feb. 24, 1826, The following was posted up at the North an d South American S u b scr ipti on R oom JAMAICA, Jul,' 31, 4P. M.—The Spanish felucca San 10 !eph i out four days from St. Jago de Cuba, arrived this morning with a letter fr om th e G overnor o f S t. Jago to the Duke of Manchester. Nothing has as yet transpired of the nature of the dispatches. The Dartmouth frigat e , ptain Dundas, has just come to an anchor at Port teyal from the Havannah. The Hussar frigate will sail f rom this in a few days for Vera Cruz, and from thence to trigland. The war which has commenced between Russia and I) 4gia, ought not to be viewed with indifference by this qluntry. The distance at which the operations will 1 : 41 conducted, and the little importance which to SUal observers may seem to attach to hostilities car ried on by such a power as Russia on a remot e fron tier, with a country engaging so small a part of our attention, and conducing to so few of our wants as P e rhta, may render the events of the war, of little in. tet.e4t to general readers. But questions of hnmenss 11"11 " 1 4 affecting the interests of this em- Pire, depend on the result of this war, and it is th erefore result ri ght to co ns id er w h at th e p ro b a bl e it tray he ; and the consequences which may , ensue, if that result be fatal to Persia as an inde pendent kingdom. First, then, hostilities are commenced on the part of Persia, on a supposition that, because Georgia, which, for a length of time, has been in possession of the Russians, is known to be dissatisfied with the rule of its oppressors, the present is a favourable time to gain possession of it by force of arms ; and, that that object being once effected, the whole population of the country, excited by the hatred of the Russians, and confident in the natural strength of their country, will rise in arms to prevent their subjugation, by any force which can be subsequently sent against them. Prince ABBAS MIRZA, burning with desire to throw back the encroachments of Russia, has encouraged these ideas, and fanaticism has added its assistance to the honourable desire of rescuing his country from the advancing strides of its ambitious neighbour. But ignorant of the strength of dot neighbour, and of the policy of the Russian Cabinet, which will urge her to make the most strenuous exertions to avail herself of the plea thus afforded her, not only to drive back the Persian forces into their own immediate territories, hut to rob her of some other of her fairest districts, if not to dismember her kingdom; the Persian Prince has, We fear, by the step he has taken, inevitably sealed the fate of his country. Neither the preparations for war, nor the resources of Persia for carrying it on, justify the ex pectatio►► of her being able to contend with the gigantic power of Russia ; nor, from the information which we have been able to collect, do the local circumstances of the disputed Provinces, nor the state of feeling of their population, lead us to expect that any very formidable obstacles ; will be thereby presented to the recovery ofithose dis tricts by Russian armies. That object being first gained, the Russian General will not stop till be has obtained military possession of a considerable part of the kingdom of Persia. To crush a troublesome enemy, and promote her own views of aggrandisement, will be temptations too strong with Russia to leave us any doubt of her adopting means sufficient to pro duce this result. What, then, will be the consequences of such a termination of the contest to Great Britain, and how will her interests be affected by it ? We answer, that the security of our Eastern Empire will be endangered, and that we shall eventually have to contend with the armies of Russia on the banks o the Indus. It is well known that the Russian Cabinet has long directed its views towards obtaining this opening to the East, and, that to counteract its objects in this respect, has not been less the aim of the Cabinet of St. James's. It has always been deemed a matter of great import ance to maintain our influence at the Court of Teheran, in opposition to that of France and Russia, from a knowledge of the dangers to which our Eastern Pos sessions would be exposed by the friendly assistance of Persia to a Power having hostile views against our territories. Of how much greater importance, then, must be the possession of a country so situated as to afford the means to an ambitious Power, of attacking when she pleases, our weakest—but, perhaps, most vital— part? Important, then, in the highest degree to this Coun try, is the result of the war between Russia and Persia ; but we are not prepared to say in what way the policy of this Country should lead her to endeavour to pre vent the event which we consider certain. In fact, the fate of Persia will, we expect, be shortly settled : but if such should be the case, it will behove our Govern- Inent to assume a firm and decided tone towards Russia, in respect to guaranteeing those temporary securities which the approximation of the remote fron tiers of the possessions of the two Empires will render essentially necessary. Wonders will never cease while Mr. JOHN WILKS, jun. remains member for Sudbury and oracle of White chapel—perpetual incumbent in Broad -street, and oc casional visitor of the Mansion-house Justice Room. Our columns of yesterday were again blessed with the recapitulation of Mr. JOHN WILKS's pilgrimag e from his mining speculations to the worthy and independent Electors of Sudbury, whom he is accused in no measured terms of having left completely in the suds, without any consolation, save his own promises, to cheer them in their moneyless expedition. But, according to a letter which appeared in the morning papers, his quondam friends, the worthy electors, are accused of forming a conspiracy against their honour able representative, and Mr. CLARK ) that evil genius of JoIINNY, is said to have been instrumental in getting up the midnight drama, in which the electors a t Su , dividing among their troubled parts in perfect cha rne r among,. them all that remained of their thiPtieate represent at lye's. Indeed, so great is their lov e f or • him, that th e y h ave r epented of their folly in i ch im i ng him to Pa r li ament , an d they now wish Par liament to return him to them. But will he go ? there's the rub. . ai d They have raised an idol which they cannot worship, ship them. the mo lt en i mage will not wor- W e have this morning seen a Gentleman direct from Ostend, who info rms use that it was the opinion of th e Government th a t t h e explosion of the Powder Magazin e s was the w or k of some incendiaries, but their motives could not be guessed. It was s i ngu l ar that an officer, a sergeant, and two men had escaped ; the officer received some injury but the men wore un touched. These men, in their examination, stated that they smelt a match burning, and hurried out of the magazine, passing at the gate the officer, who Loon followed them but was not able entirely to effect his escape. There were fourteen people killed by the explosion, and about 220 slightly wounded—others severely. Three men, who were working on a bridge a quarter of a league distant, were killed by the falling fragments. It was considered singular, that all the houses in Ostend which were covered with tiles had their roofs broken by the concussion, while those covered with slate remained uninjured, except where stones fell upon them. This is supposed to be attributable to the openness of the tiled roofs, under which the air had freer access than under the slated houses which were more compact, and the con cussion produced by the explosion in the air, acted so instantaneously as to shatter the fragile tiles. The ma gazine was composed of stone, having two angles and a centre, and it is supposed that, if the explosion was ac cidental, some one of the men must have put the match for lighting his pipe into his pocket before it was suf ficiently extinguished. There were three distinct ex plosions, beginning at one angle and finishing at the other. One circumstance was considered miraculous : two thousand soldiers were in the daily practice of parading near the magazine at the hour the explosion happened, and in a direct line with the course it took, but they had been ordered 10 or 15 miles out of town, on account of sickness, prevalent among them, to which they thus owed their preservation. THE FUNDS. CITY, Twelve n' Cinch. Notwithstanding the very heavy sale made yesterday in Con sols the effect has not been to send them down more than 4 per Cent., and that only for a short time, as they left off yesterday at nearly as high a price as at any period of the day. Consols opened this morning at 80k, went to 801, alternately buyers and sellers, without any extensive business. The Foreign Funds have been without any particular novelty, although Mexican and Colombian Bonds are rather higher, and an advance of 1 per Cent. may he quoted on the former, and 4 per Cent , on th e l a tt er; M ex i can are 624 ; C o l om bi an, 554 61.

John Hamilton was charged with having stolen some wearing apparel, the property of Joseph Pitcher, 28, Saint Mary Axe. The prisoner, a very decent looking man, protested his innocence. Innocence. He w as , h owever, committed. GUILDHALL--(Tms DAY.) RAINBOW TAVJERN.—Mr. Coils, the keeper of the Rainbow Tavern, Fleet-street, appeared upon an information at the instance of Mr. Martin, charged with keeping his house open at unseasonable hours. The eomplainaut stated that he had re peatedly witnessed what he considered the offence, and had MI.- tioned Mr. Coils against it, who had not attended to his Wino-. nitions. A stout witness, a native of the Emerald Isle, stated that on Friday morning, at ten minutes before two o'clock, he saw two persons come out of the Rainbow ; and that on Saturday morn ing, from a quarter past one till two, he saw fifteen' per sons come out, and four go in ; and that tires of those persons had been extremely sacey to a brother watchman, and had called him every thing but a penman. _ _ _ Sri. Pang LAURIE said, that he and his brother Magistrates had convicted a tavern-keeper only a short time ago, in a case pre cisely similar, and that unless Sir John Penning convicted on the present occasion, injustice must have been done them. Sir Joist; PIRRING declared that he would not be governed by the decision of any Magistrate in London. On the present occa sion no man should persuade him to convict the defendant from what they might say, unless he himself felt satisfied. Mr. Coils then addressed Sir John, and said, that the only that he had liv e d 1 5 years as a human being th a t h a d ever i n f ac t complai ne d of him, was his neighbour, M r . B ut t erwort h ; waiter at th a t t avern , an d f or t h e l a st five years h a d b een t h e master; and that this was the first time anybody had brought forward a public charge against him ; he made up a great many beds ; did three times more business than any other house, and therefore was hurried, but was unable to get through it earlier than he did. Sir NEEL LAURIZ and Mr. SAVAGE thought the defendane must act unfairly towards other houses, in having such a run of business, and that it must be because other houses were conducted more regularly than his, that they bad not equal attendance. Mr. Cells denied this. Sir J. Naar so said, that the public ought to he accommodated. being the fi rst Mr. C. having b een so l ong i n the house, was a mat recom mendation to him; the only thing objectionable- we admitting people at very late hours; letting those only out who had been com plaint, be should undoubtedly discharge it. some time in Was a Mr. Coles thanked the Worthy Magistrate, and retired. mere nothing, and this BOW-STREET.—(Tuie Dar.) Lieutenant Xingston, of the 63d regiment, who had b ee n remanded last we e k, i n or der to g i ve t h e parties an o pportunity of collecting more evidence fo r t h e prosecution, wa s brought up for fin a l exam i na tion ' HARstio, who attended on behalf of the prosecu tion, stated that Mrs. O'Brien, the mother-in-l aw o f t h e prisoner, had been at Norwich, the reputed birthplace of the first wife, in order to get information respecting her, but had failed in procuring authentic evidence thereof, , She discovered that the prisoner had lived theta tot three years, with a woman whom he called his wife, and to whom he said he had been married in London; in that part he was considered a married man ; but as this was only evidence of reputation, it was insufficient to establish the charge. The only testimony that could be produced on the part of the prosecution was letters written by the prisoner to a lady, wherein he addressed her as his wife. As this evi dence could not substantiate the charge, the proseeutrix declined to press it, but was resolved to proceed on the charge of assault. Lieutenant Kingston (who all this time found much difficulty in repressing his ire) burst out into a torrent of unmeasured abuse on Mrs. O'Brien and Mrs. Kingston; he said that the charge was a foul conspiracy between Mrs. O'Brien and some of her friends, who wished to in jure him, though they had sonic weeks ago expressed their satisfaction that there was no foundation for the charge of bigamy.—(Here the Gallant Officer indulged in some se vere animadversions respecting Mrs. O'Brien, which he concluded with the following classic quotation :)- -Hic niger est Anne tu, Romane, caveto. Mr. MlNsum.t, begged of the prisoner to restrain his temper, as he had not much room to complain since the prosecutors had withdrawn the charge of bigamy, and de dined to press the letters, which at least formed strong presumptive evidence of th e fact. The charge of assault was then gone into, and Mrs. Kingston being sworn, deposed that on Monday night, the 18th instant, the defendant came home to her lodgings at a late hour, and used her in a dreadful manner. She was up at the time, the defendant said that if she would not go to bed he would murder her ; he told her that he had been walking with his first wife that night, and that two men should sleep in the same room with witness; she had been married to him only three months. Cross-examined by the Defendant—He did not hurt her much when he kicked her, but tried to do it ; he not only kicked her with his foot, but touched her with his knee. By Mr. HARMER—The defendant had conducted him self in a dreadful manner towards her the three weeks pre vious to the charge. By Mr. MINSHULL—She thought he would do her some dreadful injury if let at large; his language was so inde cent that she could not repeat it. Mr. Mmisnum.—Mr. Kingston you must give bail. Lieut. Kingston.--1 have been provoked by the charge of bigamy which Mrs. O'Brien brought against me, to con duct myself in such a violent manner. Mr. O'Brien, my father-in-law, came to London for the purpose of making enquiries, and having done so, he was satisfied that there was no foundation mid went away again. I was going to Botany Bay with my regiment when Mrs. O'Brien be sought me not to take her daughter there and she would retract the charge. Through her persuasion I went to Sir' Herbert Taylor and got out of the regiment, and have thus lost my commission; yet, after all, she still perseveres in annoying me. The prisoner then examined Mrs. Kingston, who replied to his queries, that she did not say that her mother had entered into a combination with other persons in London to take her away from him ; but said, that her mamma would protect her, and keep her from misery if he should go off with the regiment and leave her behind. _ _ _ Mr; Miimuuta.—This is all irrelevant, there is no proof of a previous marriage, only a suspicion. Mrs. Kingston has proved not only an assault, but a threat, in consequence of which she feels herself unsafe. Under these circum stances you must give bail. Lieutenant Kingston—This is all Mrs. O'Brien's doing. I shall not live with her, that is certain. Will you be pleased, Mr. Minshull, to ask the Ladies, if after the charge of bigamy has been withdrawn, they will persevere in the charge of assault. Mr. MINSHULL put the question. Mr. HARMER replied in the affirmative. Lieutenant Kingston.—There was not the most distant foundation for the charge of bigamy. Mr. MINSHULL.—You walked with a girl, and called her your wife. Mrs. Kiligatian.--And you wrote to her as such. Lieutenant Kingston to M rs . K.—Since you have now found out that you are my wife, I ask you do you mean to persevere in pressing the charge of assault. Depend upon it, whatever the result may be, you must live with me. Mr. HARMER.—You are much mistaken there ; in cases of such brutal violence, the proper authorities will inter fere and protect her. Mrs. O'Brien,—You have brought your first wife into the hotel where the prosecutrix resided with you. Lieutenant Kingston—Where is the proof of that ? Let her be brought forward. Mr. .HATiMER- 7 -1 engage, that you can bring her forward if you like. Lieutenant Kingston—That is an unfounded assertion, Sir. If I thought proper to send an officer in search of her, she might be found. After he had spoken these words, the woman in ques tion entered the office, by what accident, or through whose agency, we could not discover ;—however, in she came, and walked up with en air of indifference before the Magi strate. She is a little taller, much older, but not near so pretty or ladylike, as the prosecutrix. On her coming up, the prosecutrix exerted her might to fall into hysterics, but to no purpose; the spirit lay dormant; however, she sat down and shrieked aloud, and Mr. O'Brien shielded her from being contaminated with the Sight of her competetrix.. The scene was very amusing. Mary Clayton, for so this reputed first wife was called, gave a side glance from under a large black veil that was was drawn over her face at the prosecutrix, and smiled. Lieutenant Kingston to Miss Clayton—Throw off that flimsy covering, and show your face to this woman. Miss Clayton—Don't speak to me in that manner, Sir; at the same time she put the veil very gracefully on one side and stared at Mrs. Kingsto n . Lieutenant Kingston to the prosecutrix—ls that the woman whom you told me ,got a sovereign from you, under false pretences, as you were going to Brighton ? Mrs. Kingston, looking at her—That is not the woman ; I never saw this woman before. Miss Clayton then left the office. Lieutenant Kingston to a man in the crowd—Mr. Springford, I ask you, have you ever heard that I war married 1) Mr. Springford—You had better not ask ma any thing about that. Lieutenant Kingston—You are the wolf in sheep's. lothing; I don't want you to conceal any thing about me; if you know any thing against me, out with it. Mr. Springford did not choose to say any thing. Mr. Morsittn.t.--The ladies must be protected. I therefore must call on you to give bail, yourself in lOW., and two sureties in UV. each. I would advise you to govern your temper, for nothing has occurred here to pro.. yoke it. Lieutenant Kingston, addressing the Reporters--I hope, gentlemen, you w►ll do me justice on this occasion, a n d correct spore errors which you published of me the last time. Then turning to Mr. Minihull—l have been rather warm, certainly, but R e m o mortaiium omnibus horis sapit. lie then left the dlice. Pearson and Francis While were c h arged with being drunk, and lying under a window in Walk er ' s - court MARLBOROUGH-STREET—(T uts D AY .) last night. The watchman stated that they were both drunk. A servant girl attended at the office to state that some person had broken into the house of her !neater, Mr. Unoth, at the corner of Walker's -court, Bervvick-etreet, last night. The robber had packed up all the portable and standing o ver h er with a large knife* threatened p r operty in the parlour, and p rocee di ng to her room he avvo ea k he4 to cut her throat if s h e made any none, or did norttteeelnled bun where the money was kept; she struggled , and the man knocked her down in the bed, and cut her neck and her arm with the knife; he then made his ocaPes and she raised an alarm ; she should not know him again, as he wore a black mask. The constable stated, that on the master's coming into the room he found the girl bleeding, and the property packed as described. As there were two persons besides the above two prisoners who were taken up near the spot last night, she attended, to discover by their dress whether the man was among them. The above named White was questioned by Mr. DYER as to his mode of living. He replied that he was the son of a distiller at Vauxhall. It may be recollected, however, that he was tried last Sessions for felony. The servant girl did not identify either of them, and the watchman stated that they were in his custody two hours before the alarm given by the girl. They were therefore fined ss. each, and detained for the payment. Robert Jones and Edward Maltby, two very respectable looking young men, were charged by Mr. Kilpatrick, of the Black Horse, Queen-street, St. Giles's, with ste a li ng six pictures from his parlour, last night. Mr. DYF,R, observed that the charge was so positively made, that he should remand them till Saturday, unless they could find one good bail of 10/. or two of 201. MARYLEBONE.--(Tms DLA Charles Dixon was accused by Nathaniel Butcher of fraud. The prosecutor, who is a butcher, stated, that the pri soner is in the habit of getting quantities of meat at the market on credit, for the purpose of getting it sold. Wit ness dealt with him on an occasion previous to the 2d of September current, when the prisoner called upon him, and asked him if he would let him have three or four joints of meat ; witness said yes, and that he (the prisoner) might keep the profits to himself; witness then weighed a shoulder of veal, a piece of beet; and two joints of lamb, and gave them to the prisoner on a tray, telling him at the same time the price. The prisoner then went away with them, but returned in about five minutes, and said that he had left the meat with a person who was going to salt it, and that he would bring the money in a few minutes; he then went away, and the prosecutor did not see him till last night in his stall, when he give him in charge. The prisoner substantially admitted the above statement. Mr. RAWLINSON remarked, that he must discharge .the prisoner, as he only acted as any other of the prosecutor's customers who are trusted, and do not pay hire. The prisoner was accordingly discharged, to the no small dissatisfaction of Mr. Butcher. THAMES POLICE OFFICE.—(Tuis DAY.) TIIR GRAIN Rousxmies.—The interest and anxiety which has hitherto accompanied the investigation of these cases, an m ama of which appeared in " Tux Sux" of Thursday last, seem to increase on every succeeding examination. On the previous hearings the almost interminable labyrinth of corridors, which lead to the seat of justice at this otEux), has been comparatively crowded, but, on this morning, they were absolutely crammed, and moat of the parties interested being Maalmen, Corn-factors, &c., Mr. Harmer, as well as ourselves, in forcing our way through them, gathered a very unique addition to our sable garments, and one which it will require no slight exereise of the wrist and elbow to dispossess them of. Since the lest examination, the partieb losing their property, and their legal advisers, have had repeated consultations, the re sult of which, has been an intention to admit Taylor end Donee., as king's evidence, their testimony being considered indispensable, to the connection of the case against the other prisoner. It has been thought by the parties, that one of them will be sufficient ; but it appearing that Taylor, who was in the employ of Messrs. 13egbie and Farrand, as warehousemen, opened the door, ►hile Douglas, who was brought up on the river, and who undertook the lightering department of this extensive robbery, removed the grain. Their evidence is therefore so strongly connected, that neither of them can give testimony in the matter, without eximi nating himself. The final determination upon this point will not, however, be come to, until the close of this day's exan - tinatiou, as from the additional testimony about to he adduced, it is hoped to connect the chain of evidence so closely, as to supersede the necessity of having recourse to persons so deeply im plicated as Taylor and Douglas are alleged to be. It appears from the cases gone into, that nearly all these robberies were per• panted at the hour at which the remainder of the persons em. played in the granary were at dinner, and, as was supposed by the foreman, the premises were vacated by all its labourers. A singular feature has' transpired since the last examinaticin. It appears that the boat in which the grain was removed, and the sacks into which it was put to be so removed, were procured by the same means as the grain itself. The prisoners hired them on the first commencement of the depredations ; but, considering this was an unnecessary waste of the proceeds of their booty, they thought it more economical to pay a visit to a neighbouring wharf, where they assisted themselves to the article* they re quired. The caution of separating the parties alleged to be implicattal waa again persevered in. Owing to this being market day, the ease was postponed until an unusually late hour. James Frewin and Mrs. Allan were then placed at the bar. Thome Charles Fletcher stated, that he was in the employ of Mr. Careless, who, for three years past, had been in the habit of lending his skiff to Allan, but Allan being considered a respectable man, hr did not think of inquiring for what purpose he required. it. He never saw any wheat in it, nor was hr aware that it was appropriated to thy carriage of that article. David Jones, Horaleydown, said, that he was frequently in the habit of lending auks to the prisoner Allan, but he had not done so lately. On Feb. 9th last he borrowed 16 sacks, and at other periods since be had been in the habit of borrowing a simi lar quantity. The evidence of a Gentleman connected with the Corn Ex change was then called for, but owing to the reason above stated, it being market day, he was not in attendance, and the ease was postponed to await his arrival..--It is understood that the evidence of this witness will be conclusive, as to the case for the prose cution in this stage of the business, and that some final deter uri nation, as far as the Magistrate is concerned, will be come to this-day. The prisoners were all in attendance, and have been kept sepa rated in different prisons pending the examination. AFFAIR OF HONOUR. of N ho E t w io c u A r, B tlemen of Northumberland are concerned, h as excite d E in w - h l N t two Y o N f ' E t'h 0 8 l E o P a l d ' in 2s g country,alrgeanir a good deal of conversation within the last day or two in this town. It appears, Mr. Burrell, of Broom Park, had bought a few fields of the Leamington estate, a short time before it was purchased by Mr. Pawson, the High Sheriff; Mr. Burrell advertised, that gentle. men were not to shoot on Leamin,ton, as it' he had been the owner of that proper ty. Mr. Paws on wrote if a card, as we u n d erstan d, to Mr. Burrell, inquiring there was not some mistake ; Mr. B. sent an angry reply, and a challenge from the High Sheriff MS the consequence. The necessary arrangements were madr, but before they could be carried into efict, the parties , were bound ove r b y G eorge Forster, F _sq, Mayor this town, on Friaay last.
